Course name: Microsoft Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) 

Course Overview:

If you want to build your career in Microsoft Cloud, then this is the first step toward your journey. This course will guide you all aspects of Azure Cloud computing. Initially I was also thinking that, cloud computing is more about the network and Infrastructure but as a developer you can also have multiple things to do.  

Azure Fundamentals exam is an opportunity to prove knowledge of cloud concepts, Azure services, Azure workloads, security and privacy in Azure, as well as Azure pricing and support. You should be familiar with the general technology concepts, including concepts of networking, storage, compute, application support, and application development.

This Course will also cover 70% of your Journey to next step. I.e. Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure (AZ-204)
